For this piece I imported an image of the Pansage’s battle sprite from Pokémon Black and/or White, and then traced over it, gave it a colouring job, and painted on a background. This piece, like the last two iPad-based drawings, its primary purpose was to experiment with the software and refresh my artistic capabilities (I’ve been out of commission for a while). I really do like how the piece turned out, and I think the character itself is adorable – definitely my favourite of the three elemental monkey Pokémon. :P

Created during the same sitting as the “Bubble Elephant” piece, I decided to take an old photograph of my partner DJ and re-draw it, updating the clothing, hair, and applying my style. I don’t think the likeness is there, unfortunately, but I’m really impressed with the quality of the artwork’s lineart and colours given how easy it was to throw together.

This is a quick and simple image of a cartoon baby elephant blowing bubbles out of his trunk… in a field. Yes, it’s very random but I needed something quick and easy to draw and this is what I came up with – it’s cute I guess? The real purpose of this picture was to test out the drawing capabilities of my new iPad 2 and Targus Stylus combo.

This collage contains pieces from most of my 2010 year at Insight and most of them are Pokemon-related, with a few Mario and miscellaneous doodles thrown in. Some of them are cute but none of them are really that amazing as these was more for the purpose of therapy than real artwork.
